Kohli resigned as the captain following India’s loss against South Africa in Tests. From leading India to the numero uno spot in ICC rankings to reaching the inaugural WTC final, Kohli is one of the greatest ever to captain India. Kohli led India in 68 Tests. He won 40 and lost 17 and the other games ended in a draw or yielded no result.

Late in 2021, he stepped down as RCB and India’s T20 captain. Just ahead of the South Africa tour, Kohli was dropped as the ODI skipper which many felt was bound to happen.

Kohli would now feature in the ODIs against South Africa where for the first time in many years – he would not walk out for the toss.
